Doran Regional Park
Doran Regional Park features a wide, 2-mile stretch of beach on Bodega Bay and more than 120 campsites available for reservation year-round.
The park is a destination for walking, picnicking, birdwatching, fishing, kayaking, body boarding, kite surfing and other water sports. A boat launch provides access to Bodega Bay and Bodega Harbor, and a jetty on the park's west end is a popular spot for rock fishing and exploring sea life.
Due to Doran's south-facing beach, waves here are typically calmer than elsewhere on the Sonoma Coast, making the park a favorite for families.
The park can be busy on holidays and summer weekends, and the entrance will close when the parking areas fill. On those days, plan to arrive by mid-morning and have an alternate destination in mind.
Doran Regional Park features campsites for tents, trailers and RVs. Reservations are required and can be made up to 12 months in advance.
The park includes five campground areas: The Shell, Gull and Cove campsites between Bodega Harbor and Doran Beach Road and the Jetty and Miwok campsites between Bodega Bay and Doran Beach Road.
Electrical hook-ups are not available. Generator hours are 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Potable water is available. Restrooms feature flush toilets, coin-operated showers and electrical outlets. Dogs on leash are allowed with a fee. Dump station fee is $10.
